Chapter 25 Mission Completed
Chapter 25 Mission Completed
"Okay, okay, I'll replace it for you, but please turn off your phone first!"
After Sun Ran asked the question again, Zhang Long's face turned extremely ugly, but he still gritted his teeth and agreed in the end.
It's better to lose a little money by changing things up than to end up trending on social media yourself.
Seeing that Sun Ran gestured for Wang Jun to turn off his phone, he turned around and started catching crabs with the workers in the stall.
Pick them one by one.
With so many people gathered around watching the spectacle, even if I grit my teeth and go down this path, I have no choice but to go all the way.
To prevent Sun Ran from making things up in the video later, they even picked up the crabs one by one to show him.
The navels were noticeably darker in color than the others.
(This is a little trick for choosing female swimming crabs (^・ω・^))
After reading one, he would throw another into the basket.
Sun Ran stood there, watching Zhang Long pick out crabs with a blank expression.
Seeing his gloomy face, I secretly found it amusing.
As expected, it takes me to deal with the wicked.
Are you trying to scam my mom out of her money?
How can we not make you bleed a little?
A basket of crabs weighs fifty pounds.
Zhou Yue'e originally chose a size of three per pound, which should have been around 150.
As a result, their attempt to steal a chicken backfired, and they ended up picking the biggest ones, with only a little over 130 crabs in the whole basket.
One by one, they were tossed into the scale and basket. Once the weight was right, ice cubes and wood shavings were added...
Put the lid on the foam box and seal it with the packing tape...
Zhang Long stared at the box, his heart bleeding.
He paid a deposit in advance to secure the goods, and the cost of this batch of premium crabs alone was almost eighty yuan!
As a result, it's now selling for 65 yuan per jin (500g).
If he had known earlier that this woman's son was a big internet celebrity, he would never have done this!
He stood there blankly, momentarily speechless with grief.
Fifty pounds, that's a loss of more than ten yuan per pound.
If we take into account that we've already picked out all the big ones, the price of the smaller ones might have to drop another notch...
That's over a thousand yuan gone in an instant!
How many crabs do I need to sell to recoup this money?!
"In business, the most important thing is integrity. Boss, I have faith in you!"
Watching them pack up, Sun Ran glanced at the styrofoam boxes on the ground, patted Zhang Long on the shoulder, and said meaningfully.
As the saying goes, one's identity is determined by oneself when traveling. He's really gotten addicted to acting and is too immersed in his role.
"hehe……"
Zhang Long listened for a while with a forced smile.
He was cursing under his breath: "Honesty is the foundation?"
If honesty is the foundation, how am I supposed to make money?
Despite his thoughts, he forced a smile, reached for the bag, grabbed it, and scooped out a whole bag of mantis shrimp, handing it forward...
"I'm sorry about before. Here, this is an apology. I hope you'll be more lenient with your words in the future."
He had just finished speaking when Sun Ran heard a soft sound in his ear.
Hey~
[Task completed, contribution points +200, low-grade magic weapon awaits collection]
Ok?
Sun Ran was taken aback. A magic weapon?
where?
He looked down and saw that the red seafood plastic bag in Zhang Long's hand was emitting a faint glow.
"Okay, let's leave it at that. Could you please find someone to help us move the crabs?"
He casually reached out and took the bag.
[I have obtained a low-grade magic weapon]
Qiankun Bag: It contains the universe and can hold all things.
As I please: Its shape and size can be changed at will.
I go!
Sun Ran, holding the mantis shrimp, was overjoyed as he looked at the prompt. "It can hold everything! Is this a storage bag?"
This is great stuff!
He picked up the bag, quickly poured all the mantis shrimp into a styrofoam box that hadn't been sealed yet, and then crumpled the plastic bag and stuffed it into his pocket.
Now the other party has suffered a loss, but the mission is complete and the storage bag is in hand—double happiness!
In a great mood, he was too lazy to argue with Zhang Long anymore. After packing up all the boxes of crabs, he turned around and left with his mother and the others.
As he walked, he reached into his pocket and began to test out his newfound treasure.
Surprisingly, it works quite well.
The originally thick and large plastic bag has now been transformed into a small keychain charm, just as he wished.
You can carry it on your person without touching it with your hands; you can simply think of it and see a storage space in your mind.
It's about 2 meters long, wide, and high. It's not big, but it's basically enough.
Moreover, it's convenient to use. Right now, he's holding the car key, mentally repeating "take" and then "go".
They went in and out, having a great time.
Clang, clang.
After the laborer pushed the cart all the way down to the parking lot and watched him load several boxes of crabs into the car, Sun Ran leisurely got into the driver's seat.
After telling everyone to fasten their seatbelts, he turned the key and slowly drove out of the market.
The worker watched them leave, then returned to his stall, completely bewildered.
"Boss, why were you so afraid of that young man just now?"
The worker thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out.
The person just now looked ordinary, like an average college student.
Why be so afraid of him?
"You're always on your phone, scrolling through it all the time. Are you blind? You can't even recognize such a big internet celebrity?!"
"Get the hell out there and get to work!"
Zhang Long was already seething with anger, and now the laborer had really crossed the line. He was met with a barrage of insults as soon as he finished asking a question.
The worker's face turned black from all the scolding.
He silently went to the side and started moving things.
Big internet celebrity?
And you even called me blind?
Boss, are you blind?
He muttered to himself as he moved the goods, the more he thought about it, the less he understood.
Zhang Long stood in front of the stall, looking at the crabs with a frustrated expression and worrying.
All the good crabs have been picked over, so won't the remaining ones be even harder to sell?
No, we need to think of a way.
Well, I was too greedy just now. Changing everything at once would have made it too easy for people to find out. Maybe I should try a different approach this time.
Exchange a little at a time, and it will add up over time...
Thinking of this, he turned his eyes and called over two workers, then whispered instructions to them.
Soon the three separated, and one of them, holding a bag, began to secretly pick out crabs.
They picked out the half-dead, mixed-grade crabs and tossed them one by one into plastic bags.
They were all happily picking out crabs.
Little did they know that what they were throwing into the bag were the biggest, fattest, and freshest crabs!
Before leaving, Sun Ran didn't forget to set up another illusion for them.
If you don't have any ulterior motives, it's fine; but if you do, this is the result.
……
Leaving aside the seafood market here, let's talk about Sun Ran driving over there.
"Hey Sun Ran, I didn't realize your face was so useful. Not only did you get the crabs, but you also got a bag of mantis shrimp for free. That's pretty good."
From the passenger seat, Wang Jun turned to Sun Ran and teased, "What kind of gang are you involved with?"
"Don't talk nonsense about which path you're on; it's about personal charisma!"
Sun Ran shook his head while gripping the steering wheel, his smug expression making Wang Jun's face darken.
temperament?
where?
How come I didn't see it!
"By the way, Ranran, is this your friend?"
At this moment, Zhou Yue'e, who was in the back seat, finally came to her senses from the shock and quickly asked her son a question.
These fifty catties of crabs were at least five hundred yuan cheaper than the market price. It's no wonder she was shocked to find such a great deal.
"Mom, don't you recognize who he is yet?"
Sun Ran glanced at the rearview mirror while driving and laughed, "Wang Jun, Jun Jun, that chubby little boy from the village used to stay at our house."
"Huh? Wang Jun, no way, you've gotten so thin!!"
Zhou Yue'e was also taken aback when she heard this, and quickly turned her head to look at Wang Jun carefully.
The more they looked, the more surprised they became, and they couldn't help but click their tongues in amazement.
He looks so different after losing weight! He's much more handsome than before!
He showered the person with compliments, which made Wang Jun blush deeply.
I was so embarrassed that I sat there scratching my cheek.
The group sat in the car chatting and laughing.
Zhou Yue'e would praise her son for a while, and then ask about the recent situation of Wang Jun's parents.
The two little ones caught their uncle and showered him with praise.
Hearing the admiring tone, Sun Ran's mouth remained wide open the entire way.
They drove Wang Jun all the way back to his company, and after saying goodbye, the family drove home.
As they approached the town entrance, Zhou Yue'e began to sulk again while sitting in the car.
The reason she was fooled when buying crabs before was simply because Zhang Long told her they were from the town.
If you don't count the mountain road in the middle, then the villages and towns are all next door. You don't even need to ask; you can tell them apart just by speaking a few words of dialect.
Otherwise, how could she have so easily believed Zhang Long's sweet talk?
So as they approached the town, she felt particularly indignant whenever she thought about it.
It's one thing for others to lie to me, but for my fellow villager to lie to me too? Is this something a human being would do?!
Sitting in the car, he angrily cursed a few times.
Sun Ran, who was driving in front, also responded repeatedly.
Of course, people would join in the cursing.
You can't lie to my mom!
Just as he was loudly criticizing the stall owner, suddenly his vision blurred and he felt a dark shadow dart past in front of the car.
Startled, he slammed on the brakes, and with a loud screeching sound, the pickup truck came to a screeching halt in the middle of the road.
"Damn it! You filthy stray dog, where do you think you're going! I'll beat you to death!"
While Sun Ran and his family were still in the car, they suddenly heard a roar from outside.
Then a man carrying a stick angrily ran past the car.
"Oh, it's Big Yellow!"
At that moment, Sun An'an suddenly grabbed the car window and shouted.
Then a piercing scream was heard outside the car.
"Oh! That mean uncle is hitting Big Yellow! Poor Big Yellow!"
The little girl clung to the car window, her eyes suddenly welling up with tears.
She turned to Sun Ran, her eyes brimming with tears, and said, "Uncle, shall we go and save Da Huang?"
Please~
